Lucy Bolster is training with 3D and emailed us to say we absolutely had to meet Kathryn Lord from www.outoftheboxstories.org . The sense of delight, wonder and enjoyment in human interaction is strongly present in both of these kinds of conversations
The core values of OOB - breathe, trust, listen, feel, wonder, play, love - are the internal process I try to inhabit when I'm in a coaching conversation with others
The coaching outlook which says trust the process and trust that the other person has what they need to do the work they need to do, echoes so strongly with my experience of using OOB storytelling to open up conversation. (it doesn't mean I always manage to do it though!)
Both approaches advocate creating a container for the work which needs to be done in that moment. There is a recognition that this is what is needed in order for people to feel safe enough to be brave. As a facilitator/coach I notice this is what I need too, both these approaches support me in curbing my own inner desire to 'sort it out'.
There is a lightness to both types of conversation (bit of a nebular term I know), maybe playfulness is another way of putting it. Even when we're opening a space to talk about painful, complex or long-term entrenched situations, I find space for gentle smiles and loving humour in the conversations.
So we said come and chat at The Coaching Inn. And we uncovered another way of changing the medium in coaching, exploring the value of ritual, embodied learning, and engaging even more of our senses.
Takeaways
- The use of storytelling and sand as a tool for dialogue and exploration
- The transformative power of narrative change in coaching and personal development
- The importance of community play and transitions in creating meaningful conversations
- The value of using physical mediums for coaching and personal development
You can also watch the video of the conversation on our YouTube channel https://youtu.be/84HRgCpW6Y0

We open Season 3 at The Coaching Inn asking the question: What is coaching?
If you’re not sure, this is for you! Claire and Su talk about the impact coaching might have for things that you want to think through, are struggling with or need some focus on. Together, we look at what coaching is from the perspective of the Thinker: what would it be like if you had a safe space to do the thinking you need to? What might the impact of that be? And how does it feel having a conversation where you get to choose your own destination and how you get there?
Share with us what you think coaching is from the seat of the Thinker! And get in touch if you’d like some coaching.
